5 out of 5 stars A Beautiful, Sweeping Film   February 16, 2006
  1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Although we can all agree that there is almost nothing historically accurate about this film, Anastasia is a beautiful, sweeping film to enjoy on its own. It offers a wonderful storyline that I personally wish had been a true account of Anastasia's story. The score is simply astounding, and such songs as "Journey to the Past" and "Once upon a December" are magnificently done and are terrific pieces. Overall, you're going to love this movie as long as you don't compare it to the real story of Anastasia.


5 out of 5 stars AMAZING movie - though not historically accurate   January 23, 2006
  3 out of 3 found this review helpful

Anastasia is a movie that has everything: adventure, romance, humor and horror. It is a great movie for people of all ages, and everytime I watch it I fall in love with Dimitri. Though, as is apparent from the first minute, it is not historically accurate, it is still a fabulous movie. The soundtrack is unbeatable, I love to sing along to it while driving. Anastasia is recommended for all, you'll be left with the satisfied feeling that a good movie gives.


4 out of 5 stars Needs a re-edit   January 2, 2006
  2 out of 4 found this review helpful

One of the few movies made by the now non-existent Fox Animation Studios, this is their best attempt at creating a masterpiece. Many beautiful backdrops (i.e. the ballroom), wonderfully written songs, and a fantastic love story make this movie well worth watching. br /br /The acting could be much better, including both the voice acting, and the non-verbal expressions in the animation. My biggest critique of the movie though is the Ras Putin subplot. The real villain in this movie was deception, and it almost conquered the hearts of the protagonists. Without the little demon fairies, the evil sorcerer, this movie could have been amazing. A simple re-edit to exclude those elements would have made a much more memorable movie experience.


4 out of 5 stars Not perfect, but Anastasia is magic.   December 27, 2005
  0 out of 1 found this review helpful

My girls have enjoyed this version of Anastasia for years. We find ourselves singing the songs with fond memories. Characters 'rasputin and bartok' are ridiculous and over the top, didn't like these. I do not believe this story to be accurate but nevertheless, it is a good story and has a good music soundtrack. Cusack and Ryan do a good job with Voice for the characters Anya and Dimitri. Worth a second look.


5 out of 5 stars A deserved happy ending   December 13, 2005
  2 out of 4 found this review helpful

You would never know that after watching this movie there would be such a sad tale behind it. When I was younger I was facinated by it and sought to learn more about it. The family, the history, the unhappily ever after that still consumes Russia even to this day and how it cries out for the Royal family to take it's rightful place. Anastasia however is the real mystery. Whatever happend to the young girl everyone wants to know. Did she die? Perhaps. Did she live on? We hope. Did she find peace? We dream. However as we all know life is not like that. So for the hopeful romantics, and dreamers the disney version Anastasia is the movie for you. br /br /It holds everything that we wish was real. That the young girl survived, lived, had adventure and found her way back to her grandmama as well as defeating the evil Rasputin! Meg Ryan portrays her beautifuly by giving Anastasia spirit, independence, and that thirst for life that we can all relate too. Even now as I watch mesmerized by the characters, the dialog and the over all picture its self I can only imagen what happend, what should of been and the little princess that never got her happy ending. br /br /This movie even though changed by adults to fit in the world of the childs mind. Is in my opinion the happy ending to the lost princess Anastasia should should have had. Not only that but it makes children and adults a like, believe even just for one moment... that she could still be out there....just waiting to be found.
